This is what happens when I attempt to make a third functional item (thank you very much) in a month...

Scary eh?

No, not the model! That is THE wonderful MK who came to visit our Stitch 'N Bitch last Thursday while in Los Angeles to shoot an episode of Knitty Gritty. MK graciously offered to model Turkeyzilla, The Tote Bag while Ellen snapped the photo. Thanks to MK and Ellen for helping me out!

So, back to the Poultry Purse, Turkey Tote, Chicken Whatchamacallit...Okay, maybe it's not scary, but it's definitely different. Yeah, it's unique! This chickadee on a strap is modeled after the originalTurkeyzilla and like it's predecessor, this Hen Of All Bags is crocheted from Lion Brand Homespun in their Harvest colorway.

Please note that this um, err, interesting creation will be going to my Back-Tack partner who is, yes, a bag designer! If you were her and Turkeyzilla, The Tote Bag showed up in your mailbox, would you freak? Be honest...

OMG how great is that bag...(no eyeballs thank whomever!) .. hahaha.. i adore that bag.. i am sure your partner in crime knows what to expect of you .. so there shouldnt be a surprise on that end.. i wouldnt be sad if it turned up at my door.. i am LOVING the drumstick pouch !

Seriously, I would weep with joy and would very likely sleep with that bag at night, I love it! That is a such a unique, and in my opinion beautiful bag, I'm sure whoever receives it will appreciate its qualities.

Uh, yea I would freak, and do a happy dance around the room. Seriously, it's great. And man I've got to find me some Homespun in Harvest. I forgot to look last time. Doh! Drumstick pouch....perfect accessory ;)

We all have turkeys on the brain thanks to you! Add me to the list of turkey bag stalkers.. Who knows where it will ultimately end up?? I have never seen anyone think the way you do, so original, you really have opened the gates for free thinking crocheters! (and turkey eaters)

Regina!!!I couldn't take my eyes off this bag when you brought it to SnB the other night. That's why I had to rip it out of your hands and give it to MK to model so I could photograph it!!!! I even ran right out and bought the same colorway of Homespun so I could start my own fall handbag!!! You are truly inspiring and clever!

Oh I would have immediately gone out to show it off. And made sure I had to pay for something so I could open up the drumstick. I swear it should be illegal to have that much talent and creativity crammed into one small person.Gobble, Gobble.:)

Oh NO FREAKIN WAY!!! That is just too awesome!!! I would free it from it's mailing bonds, toss it over my shoulder and go to the mall so as many people as possible at that moment could admire it. I wouldn't just use it in the fall either....that would be my everyday bag! It's AWESOME!!!! Another Ace for Lady Lino!!!!

Winter sucks in the north west. Cali is supposed to be warm all the time. I end up surfing for stuff to buy online all the time. Clothes, shoes, purse, whatever. I also have no one to talk to, so here I am again. Time to go look for some more sites with purse maybe. Who knows.
